AN DOVER, MASSACHUSETTS
To Miss Carpenter
Remembering, as rhe parting hour nears,
The thousand little things you've said and done
Unconsciously to ease and smooth these vears,
Spontaneous, but remembered every one,
W e long with speaking thoughts but perverse tongue
To thank you for them and for everv dav;
But most deserved praise is never sung,
And everv full heart finds no word to saw
We will remember how vou smiled at us
On meeting, all vour comforting way,
Your gracious manner and — because we must —
That lock of hair that alwavs went astray.
For proof we leave vou — more than hearts alone —
This Book, dear Carpie, for your verv own.

Here are some girls, who are real Abbor girls,
Who will strive for the school thev adore.
Never desponding, we're ever resolving
That up to the heights we will soar.
Shoulder to shoulder, and bolder and bolder,
We sing as we swing on our way;
So, we know the white and blue
Will always thrill our hearts,
On, we're marching on —
We are the class of '35-

Brilliant playing in hockey, good looks, enviable
wardrobe, to say nothing of such things as good-
nature, and general likability! Divested of these,
we find Pri is still intangible. Perhaps that's a
characteristic of Michigan. Anyway, we want
some more from the same place.

There is an expression, " Tis nice to be natural

named Doris who bounces into your pathway with
a loud "Hi," and a laugh that sort of bubbles
forth from a smile between two dimples. The
"Cheerful Cherub" has never been more truly
personified.

It is a mystery to us why Mickey should at anv time
he subject to spells of melancholia, when she is our
class smoothie, one of our star hockey players, and,
when not on the hockey field, looks just like a
Vogue fashion plate. Is it because someone does not
appreciate those lovely eyes, Mickey?

three times. Imagine fly away blonde hair, black
eyebrows, blue eves, and a cute profile. May we
also mention that she has a gorgeous figure and a
sunny personality. And there must be something
about Griffin captains that makes the lads flock

of the late Italian Renaissance in a few more vears,
but in the meantime we enjoy her poetic abilitv as
revealed in Courant. We lament her woeful mutila-
tion of the King's English, but there seems to be no
cure. -

Com el I Two Years
"Oh, dear, I just know I flunked that Algebra
test!" And Claire, giving us all a gloomv look,
collapses feebly on the couch of the senior parlor.
All this, my friends, makes us extremelv annoved,
because Claire is very rarely known to be defeated
in a mathematical boxing bout, or, we might add,
in anything else she happens to go after. And put-
ting two and two together (apropos of algebra) we
wager right now that without benefit of anv or all
of those scrumptious cars, Claire of the golden head
is going to get somewhere.

If vou hear a shriek of laughter anvwhere around,
it's probablv the result of one of Annie's witty
remarks (not so the puns). If vou see someone being
enthusiasticallv patted on the back, she's probablv
just gotten on the honor roll with a 99 average, or
starred in a play or written a swell story for Courant.
All violent discussions, and libelous nicknames are
directlv traceable to the same source. And it's also
a known fact that she's universallv beloved.

For one small person, Jane certainly is a pillar of
strength. But we shouldn't be so literal. Jane is the
ideal sort to have backing a class for four years in
more ways than one. Her playing at recitals, her
prompt attendance at hockey and fun at Fidelio can
hardly be easily forgotten. A gifted raconteuse, she
has beguiled us with many tales of her near and
dear.
By the way. Jane, when are we going to meet your

such long and tapering appendages. In fact, she
seems to stress the "unusual" motif — noticeable
at times in French. ("For French of Parys was to

is likewise an accomplished dancer and a brilliant
hockey plaver to boot. What will the Griffin for-

heads together? But even if, mv friends, such se-
crets are not for us, it would not require the powers
of a Sherlock Holmes to realize that blond curls,
lovely coloring, and a bubbling laugh are the stuff
that popularity is made of. even when not seasoned,
as thev are in Ruthie's case, by a liberal sprinkling
of intelligence.

ALICE BEST ROBINSON
30 Chedell Place, Auburn, New York
Vassar Three Years
Alice is one of those people with a decided taste for
things literary- Some of us perhaps can think back
several vears to the time when Alice first came to
Abbot, and used to hold "colloquia" in her room
over crackers, peanut-butter, and Beau Geste. We
also have great admiration for Alice's cleverness at
the piano, and we would rather hear her play a
Brahms waltz than almost anvbodv we know.

Dossv, our class bluffer! We ask you if vou remember
Dossy, slumbering in the senior parlor, franticallv
embracing three or more pillows, or that famous
kick of disapproval when the world was treating her
pretty shabbily? We all look upon Intervale as the
great exposition of Dossy's quaint humor and
musical ability, just in case you didn't happen to
know that she plays everything from Beethoven's
Moonlight Sonata to Gershwin's Rhapsody in
Blue. Yes, indeed we venture to say that in this
respect Dossy will continue to make a "play" for
attention.

We all like to be famous for one thing, but how
would you like to be famous for several? We know
someone who is — take a bow, Scud! She's noted for
the queerest mixture of things, such as athletics
(some javelin thrower), brains (no comment nec-
essary), obstinacy (just try and argue with her),
and plenty of pestiferousness (watch your hat).
We don't want to mention too many things, but
could you ever forget that laugh?

If there was ever an over-worked adjective it's
individual, but when we come to Margit we just
have to use it. She has the most delightful whimsi-
cality, and a Puckish sense of humor that surprises
you at every turn. No dull moments with Margit!
She has a way, too, of making people feel like
potential geniuses, which is reallv one of the finer
arts of life. Of course we're nor the onlv people who
realize all this, and we fear that the competition is
going to be a bit hard for the poor "Lion Tamer."
How about it, Margit?

when it 'the twinkle) reaches her mouth — well,

The Supreme Court Sits
It was upon a Thursday night
The faculty were meeting,
And in the rooms aboye their heads
Full fifty hearts were beating.
For this, it happened, was the night
The faculty'd decided
To talk of seniors and their ways
And what girls should be chided.
It was Miss Bailey who arrived
To ope the judgment hall.
And after her each teacher came,
Assembling one and all.
Miss Comegys came loping in,
And Madame in her booties,
Miss B. with l' Illustration,
And Duncie from her duties.
Miss Bean was there with H. Belloc's
Life of King Charlie One.
Miss Grimes and good Miss Carpenter,
Her daily dozen done.
Then came the Misses Chickering
From Van der Stucken's lecture,
And all wore faces graye and sad,
As you can well conjecture.
"I think that alphabetically
We'll bring up each girl's case.
You all agree?" Miss Bailey said,
And glanced at every face.
"Miss Abbot is the foremost then.
W hat are her misdemeanors?
Now speak up every teacher plea c e
W ho in some class has seen her."
Most every one swore Pri was fine,
And there was small contention.
But Chickie shook her winged hat,
"She doesn't pay attention!"
36
"This must be fixed," Miss Bailey cried,
Bur passed on to another.
And Mick and Dossy Anderson
Were found to be no bother.
The same was true of Phyllis Brown,
\\ ho shone in mathematics,
And stood the foremost of the group
Of Algebra fanatics.
"And what of Katie Burns?" was asked,
And up spoke good Miss Baker.
"She asks so many questions that
Sometimes I'd like to shake her."
"Well Helen Cary is the next."
Miss Baker beamed her pleasure.
"Her German accent is a joy
I cannot hope to measure!"
When Tubbv C. and good ol' Coop
And Claire had all had praise,
"Now what," Miss Bailey said, "of Ann?
Let's hear what each one savs."
Then Chickie smirked, Miss Baker beamed,
Miss Comegys grinned her pleasure,
And all agreed with one accord
That Annie was a treasure.
"And what of Jane?" Miss Bailey cried.
Miss Baker took the floor.
"If she would learn Tl est' and 'C'est,'
I'd ask for nothing more."
Of 'Laine and Jerry, Sue and Bun
They spoke with approbation,
But fought on whom El would perform
Her first great operation.
Next Lizzie K. and Frannie Mac
And Doris More and Pat
Were warmly praised by everyone,
And that was all of that.
"But Lucia," Chickie said, "has used
Such great big words just lately,
I find to my embarrassment
My Webster helps me greatly."
37
Claire Oppenheim and Jean and Ruth
Were voted swell dav scholars,
And everybody spoke with awe
Of Ellen's many callers.
They all agreed that Alice's love
Of music was just sweet,
And Dossv's everlasting doze
Was certainly a feat.
Then Scudder's laugh was criticized,
And Shirley's niceness praised,
But, when our Margit was brought up,
The very roof was raised.
"She drew us all," they wailed aloud,
"In rompers childishly,
And put us in the class book thus,
Alas for dignity!"
They all praised Towse's sportmanship,
And couldn't help but feel
It would be swell to spend their lives
In Araby with Cile.
And, when at last the Court broke up,
'Twas voted that they would
Give every girl her ring, and thus
Get rid of her for good.

Ring Song
In holding you, my ring, I see
Two circles in my heart.
In both these Abbot circles here
I know I have a part.
The one is smooth, a dappled lawn.
The buildings stand around—
White-pillared Abbot, long McKeen,
And Draper, ivy-gowned.
The other circle, larger still,
Is one of friends so dear,
Who, warm and true, will closer grow
With every passing year.
Lucia Nunez
Tree Song
Poets sing of loveliness,
Forests greenly cool,
Why has vet no poet come
Abbot to extol?
Charm of sylvan grove have we,
Lofty aisles of pine.
Sun-enchanted meadows ours,
Glad hearts to enshrine.
Where our hearts must e'er remain
We will plant our tree.
Ever thoughts of it will wake
Tender memorv.
Ann Cutler

Intervale
CAVIAR TO THE GENERAL
But look, the morn, in russet flannels clad,
Peeps out the side of yonder Johnny door.
Wake we our neighbors up; but by my advice
Let us impart what we have seen tonight
To no one. But for this, I could a tale
Unfold, whose slightest word would freeze thv young
Blood. For sleeping in mine comfy bed,
Mv custom always in the night, upon
Mv slumbrous hour mv roommate stole,
With juice of cursed ice within a glass,
And in the gapings of my night-shirt poured
This leperous distilment. Something too much
Of this! Let us to breakfast. Thrift, thrift,
Horatio, is forgotten, since steak and fried
Pancakes do warmly furnish forth
The breakfast table. And later, "Oh,
That this too, too solid flesh would melt,
Thaw, and resolve itself into the perfect
Figure." Then under this most excellent
Canopy, the air, look vou, this brave o'erhanging
Firmament we shall ski. We pause upon
Yon sterile promontorv and ponder.
"To ski or not to ski; that is the question.
Whether 'tis nobler in a snowdrift to suffer
The chills and drippings of outrageous icicles,
Or to take weight upon our ski-poles
And m arising break them. Ah! this is
The very ecstasv of love of skiing,
Whose violent properties upsets itself
And us, and leads the legs to desperate
46
Undertakings. Oh, my prophetic soul!
I'm down again!'' The air bites shrewdly. It
Is a nipping and an eager air. What hour now?
I think it lacks of twelve. Indeed it now
Draws nigh the season wherein the stomach
Is wont to warble unmelodiouslv.
Less art, more matter! . . . After dinner soliloquy:
"What is man (or Abbot girl for that matter)
That his chief good and market of his time
Be but to sleep and feed? A beast, no more!
Now whether it be natural otiosity or some
Craven scruple of thinking too precisely
On the two-mile walk to North Conway,
A thought which quartered hath but one part
Healthv exercise and three parts aching muscles,
I know not. Shall we expose what is mortal
And unsure to all that skates, and ice, and
Other perils dare, even for a Viennese Waltz?"
And still we go. (Fell down her snowy trophies
And herself onto the heartless ice.) The night
Draws on apace. My neighbors' spirit in arms,
I doubt some foul play. There's beds awry,
And my two school-fellows, whom I will trust
As adders fanged, thev wear suspicious mien.
Let it work, for 'tis sport to have
The piebedmaker hoist with his own petar.
An't shall go hard, but I will delve one yard
Below their blankets and there deposit
Midst the snowy sheets an icy lump, that
Swift as quicksilver it courses through the natural
Gates and alleys of the sheet. Pandemonium reigns,
And in its midst, the clock then beating one,
"Rest, rest, perturbed spirits!" quoth Miss Bailev.
The rest is silence.
47
Intervale Song
(Tune: A Little Bit of Heaven)
Sure a little bit of heaven
Fell from out the sky one day,
And it nestled in New Hampshire
Not so many miles away;
And when the angels found it
Sure it looked so sweet and fair,
They said, "Suppose we leave it,
For it looks so peaceful there.''
So thev sprinkled it with sunshine
Just to make the pine trees grow,
They're the finest ones that can be found
No matter where you go.
And they placed the mountains round it
Just to keep away the gale,
And when thev had it finished,
Sure thev called it Intervale.
49
Intervale Songs
Intervale where everyone is gay,
Lots of fun throughout the live-long day,
Skiing, skating, sleighs, toboggans, too,
Lots of food to eat, lots of things to do,
We broke a trail up over Mount Surprise,
We've had our share of heavy exercise,
We'll always cherish happy memories
Of dear old Intervale.
(Tune: Walking in a Winter Wonderland)
We have skied, we have skated,
We've acquired lots of muscle,
We're spotted black and blue,
But we're here to say to you
Just wait until you get to Intervale.
We bumped into the trees upon the mountains,
We fell into the snow drifts down below,
We froze our feet and then we froze our noses,
But still we sav to you we're fond of snow.
Repeat Chorus:
We have skied, we have skated . . .
51
The Senior Middle Class Song
Onward still and upward
Thirtv-six will aim,
Striving for the highest

Higher ever higher
Will our banners rise,
Till our crimson colors
Mount up to the skies,
And we've kept the standards
Abbot glorifies.

Parting Hymn
Father, I know that all mv life
Is portioned out for me;
The changes that are sure to come
: I do not fear to see; :
But I ask Thee for a present mind
Intent on pleasing Thee.
I ask Thee for a thoughtful love
Through constant watching wise,
To meet the glad with joyful smiles,
: And to wipe the weeping eves; :
And a heart at leisure from itself.
To soothe and svmpathize.
Wherever in the world I am.
In whatsoe'er estate,
I have a fellowship of hearts
: To keep and cultivate; :
And a work of lowly love to do
For the Lord on whom I wait.
So I ask Thee for the dailv strength
To none that ask denied,
And a mind to blend with outward life

The Senior Play
"DEAR BRUTUS"
By Sir James Matthew Barrie
Everyone is probablv more or less fond of Barrie, but the witchery and charm of
his "Dear Brutus," must surelv linger in our memories as one of the most delightful
events of the year. The acting, the dialogue, the entire atmosphere caught and en-
chanted us. The idea of midsummer's eve with its strange traditions and mvsterious
happenings; the odd little man, the last of Merrie England, is irresistible. Secretly we
should rather like to venture into the Enchanted Wood, if only to see what we Might
Have Been.

synopsis of scenes
Act I. Lob's House
Act II. The Wood
Act III. Same as Act I
Somewhere in the north of England there is a legend that once every year on
Midsummer Night, a strange forest appears, and that those who go into it will have,
for a few hours, the life they might have lived, if, at some crucial time in their past,
they had chosen the other turning instead of the one they did.
A queer old Puck of a man who lives in this region conceives the idea of inviting
some guests to his house at just this time of year, and seeing what happens when this
second chance is given to them in the enchanted wood. And not only does this old
man Lob gratify his whimsical curiosity, but those who witness the play are per-
mitted to look on as well, and to see each character as he MIGHT HAVE BEEN, and
then to see his return to what he reallv is.

THREE PILLS IN A BOTTLE
By Rachel Lyman Field
Tony in "Three Pills in a Bottle" is just the sort of charming, imaginative, old-
fashioned child whom everyone is fond of, and we all experienced with him a real
pleasure in meeting the souls of those everyday people. The fine acting of the entire
cast made the fanciful but brief experience realistic for the audience.

CATHERINE PARR
or
Alexander s Horse
By Maurice Baring
From the minute the curtains drew apart to show Henry VIII, English monarch,
posing a knife on his egg, the breakfast room was electrically charged. Rich argument
"Alexander's horse was white — no, black!" reached a crisis when the lovely blond
page took execution orders. How Catherine escaped we don't quite know — a splendid
glimpse of sovereigns on high domestic seas — and lavender tights.

ROSALIND
By J. M. Barrie
"Rosalind" is one of those engrossing plays of mistaken identity, though it holds
no element of mvstery for the audience. The smallness of its cast made every character
necessarily outstanding, and the three principals rose to the occasion with excellent
performances.

SPREADING THE NEWS

Hamlet and Eggs
A hush lav over all the class;
No breathing stirred the air,
And then the calm was broken by
The creaking of a chair.
We sat and looked with hollow eves
Where Chickie kept her station.
"Yes, girls," she said, "I'm sure 'twill be
A nice examination.
Tomorrow vou will come at five
— The C. P. Senior Classes —
Prepared to take an oral test,
I hope that each one passes.
We will recite respectivelv
— Priscilla, pay attention —
Upon the works we've read this vear,
But what I need not mention."
What awful visions filled our minds,
And made us cringe and cower!
For sure on "Hamlet" and the "Ag"
We'd spent full manv an hour.
But when the bell had tolled the hour
When we were meant to meet,
Both crammed and empty, bright and dumb,
Each girl was in her seat.
And Chickie prancing to her desk
Could smack her lips with pleasure.
"We'll start on 'Hamlet' first," she said,
"He's really such a treasure!
Now, will you tell me, Eleanor,
Why Hamlet acted mad?"
"Oh, ves," said Ellie, bright with pride,
"The truth is that he had
A common ailment of the mind,
Cyclothvmia — the same.
It is a form of psychosis.
The svmptoms I can name."
"Oh, pray don't bother," Chickie said;
"This class is as a rule
Conducted to teach literature;
'Tis not a doctor's school.
86
But let's return to where we stopped,
And Ann, I'm sure, can sav
Why Hamlet jumped into the grave
On 'Phelia's burial day."
"I've often wondered why myself,"
Said Annie, deep in thought.
"He might have hurt an arm or leg,
Or got his doublet caught.
But if he'd onlv used his head,
I'm sure it's safe to say
He would have used a glider, and
Gone down an easv way."
"You disappoint me, Ann, indeed!"
Poor baffled Chickie cried,
"But, Lucia, tell me how the king,
The queen, and Hamlet died."
But Lucia, simpering, demurred,
And, maiden coy, replied,
"The Andover mother's darling girl
Knows not life's sordid side."
So Chickie, puzzled, turned to Scud,
And asked her pleadingly,
But heartless Scudder onlv cried,
"HAW! HAW! HAW! Don't ask me!"
"Why then perhaps," said Chickie now,
"Cathleen will try and say
Whv Hamlet spurned Ophelia's love
Within the hall that day."
"I'm sure I cannot answer why,"
Said Kate contemptuously,
"Love is a lot of rot, I think,
And men especiallv."
"Then, Cecile, will you tell me now,
— And tell me quickly please —
Where Rosencrantz and Guildenstern
Took Hamlet overseas?"
And Cecile, dozing there, did not
So much as raise her head,
But yawned and mumbled 'neath her breath,
"Arabia," she said.
Poor Chickie, swooning in her chair,
Was limp with indignation,
"This will not do at all," she said,
"I'll ask just one more question.
87
"So, Doris, will vou tell me why
Upon that fatal night
Our Hamlet met the ghost, and got
Himself in such a plight?"
And Dossv, wakened from a nap,
Spoke with a drowsv head,
"Because he hadn't sense enough
To be at home in bed."
"Ker-plunk!" reechoed thu the room
The noise of Chickie's fall.
And Ellie rushed out hurriedly
An ambulance to call.
But Chickie, ere they bore her off,
Revived enough to saw
"What would mv friend, T. S., have said,
Had he been here todav?"

A Forrest Strahl
A snappy GREENE DODGE swings in at the ABBOT gate. A DARLING girl
stands on the steps of the CHAPPELL. The Villain named Gill HAWKES his horn,
and the imPRUDDEN girl PLUNKETT herself beside him. With the GAGE reading
sixty, they THONYs out of the circle while Miss Bailey cries, "No MORE of that,
NEVINS DUNCAN my DAWES again. ' ' With only a GALLON of gas left, the villain
sees the SARGENT and gets COLE feet. So he CARYs the girl off to some BROWN
BARNES like a PECK of potatoes. "DOUCET down while I FITCH you some RICE,"
he says. "WAITE, I'll MCTERNEN JOOST a minute." "Get thee hence, BAIN of my
existence, I disDANE it, I've just EATON," quoth she. "Do not MADDEN me,
PRATT," he says, taking a.PAGE for the RANSOM note. She was DOOLEY impres-
sed, and pleaded, "Have a HARTMAN, SPEAR me, SPEAR me!" Then he HEALD
her close, saying, "TOOHEY or don't we?" as he GABELER a HOTCHKISS. "That
BURNS me up," says she, WARDing him off. There is a RUSSELL at the window.
"I SAWYER PETTENGILL," cries HENRY, the hero, and he shoots the villain
WRIGHT away. "LEE me have a LOOK at you, MAHONEY, are you STILLWELL?"
says he. "HuRAE, come INMAN," she exclaims, "I've been enJORDAN myself. So
off they SWINT together to SCATES on the EASTLACK. The moral is: ALL'S well
